A "white Christmas" came to our Texas home

along with my daughter's visit. We have had such a magical Christmas time!

Snow, mistletoe, memories shared, and memories made..........

Guess what I am going to start embroidering on next?....................

That's right, this rather rough and unsightly chair..............

however, that is not what I thought when I saw this..........

I had gone into town with my husband and he had to stop by the city dump on the way........a place I usually will not go to visit with him............however,

a man was pulling up in his truck with this chair........

ready to be tossed away............and all I saw.......

was potential........

a blank canvas.............waiting for some kind of stitched beauty to adorn it.

I told my husband to ask the man if  I could have it.............and he graciously gave it to me!!

 Can you see what I see??

This back panel would look lovely with a cross stitched piece.........maybe in roses or wildflowers........

don't you think?  A new fabric seat cover to match and maybe a dark cherry stain

or possibly dark paint on the trim? I will post the idea design when I decide on such and let you see the progress............as I go along?

What do you think?

How was your Christmas............

did you have lots of guests and snow?

I would love to hear!
